Editor’s note: Any and all references to time frames longer than one trading day are for purposes of market context only, and not recommendations of any holding time frame. Daily rebalancing ETFs are not meant to be held unmonitored for long periods. If you don't have the resources, time or inclination to constantly monitor and manage your positions, leveraged and inverse ETFs are not for you.

Second-quarter earnings season has begun, led by banking giants JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup.

Analysts at FactSet estimate a (year-over-year) earnings growth rate of 8.8% for the S&P 500 companies, which would mark the highest year-over-year earnings growth rate for the index since Q1 2022 (9.4%).

Hopes that the U.S. stocks rally will broaden beyond megacap tech stocks will be tested in coming weeks as traders see whether profit growth starting to spill over beyond tech-related leaders.

The S&P 500 has rallied 16% so far in 2024, as of July 5th, driven by a handful of massive stocks poised to benefit from emerging artificial intelligence technology. Only 24% of stocks in the S&P 500 outperformed the index in the first half, the third-narrowest six-month period since 1986, according to BofA Global Research strategists.

Overall, the market's earnings forecasts balance optimism about recovery with caution about potential challenges.

Here’s a list of announcement dates with related Leveraged & Inverse ETFs, week-by-week for 2024’s Q2 earnings season.

Earnings dates are subject to change without notice.
